Figure 1. SIL suppresses HIV-1 Infection of TZM-bl cells.

Figure 1

A, Cytotoxicity profile of SIL in TZM-bl cells. Cells were infected with LAI, a CXCR4-using virus, or BAL, a CCR5-using virus, at an MOI of 0.05 in the presence of the indicated concentrations of SIL and ATP was measured using the ATPlite kit 48 hours later. The data are representative of 2 (BAL) and 3 (LAI) independent technical repeats. B, Antiviral profile of SIL in TZM-bl cells. Serial dilutions of SIL were tested for inhibition of infection in TZM cells. Following addition of compounds and virus, cells were incubated for 48 hours before luciferase activity was measured. Percent inhibition refers to percent reduction in luciferase activity of SIL versus untreated cultures. Error bars represent standard deviation of 3 independent technical repeats. C, SIL inhibits pseudovirus replication in TZM-bl cells. TZM-bl cells were infected with the indicated viruses in the presence of the indicated concentrations of SIL and luciferase activity was measured 48 hours post-infection. The D013M12 psuedovirus contains a subtype D envelope sequence, while the D769 psuedovirus contains a subtype A envelope sequence. Error bars represent standard deviations of triplicate wells per condition.
